NYAB Gets Confluxed

NYAB hit the art and technology festival Conflux to talk with artists and get psychogeographic. Today (Sunday) is the final day of Conflux, which features over 100 artists in a series of talks, events, guided tours and performances around the city. All of today’s events are free and open to the public.

This past week over one hundred local and international artists converged on New York City with their gadgets, guided concept tours and a DIY, cross-medium, cross-discipline ethic for the fifth (and final) Conflux Festival. Tackling the theme of psychogeography, or the investigation of contemporary life at the intersection of society, technology and art, the four-days of lectures, performances and projects comes to a close today.

NYAB visited the Conflux Headquarters, located in Greenwich Village at the Center for Architecture, to talk with artists and get confluxed. All of today’s events are free and open to the public.
